What is Corona Virus (COVID-19), Symptoms, Do and Don’s

This post is to making social awareness in the society. These post information/data collected from the World Health Organization (WHO) website who continuously monitoring and responding to this outbreak of corona viruses (COVID-19). In Q&A, WHO updated as more is known about COVID-19, how it spreads and how it is affecting people worldwide.

What is corona viruses:

Corona viruses are a large family of viruses which may cause illness in animals or humans. In humans, several corona viruses are known to cause respiratory infections ranging from the common cold to more severe diseases such as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS).

What is (COVID-19):

COVID-19 is the infectious disease caused by the most recently discovered corona virus. This new virus and disease were unknown before the outbreak began in Wuhan, China, in December 2019.

What are the symptoms of COVID-19:

People may be sick with the virus for 1 to 14 days before developing symptoms. The most common symptoms of corona virus disease (COVID-19) are fever, tiredness, and dry cough. Most people (about 80%) recover from the disease without needing special treatment.

More rarely, the disease can be serious and even fatal. Older people, and people with other medical conditions (such as asthma, diabetes, or heart disease), may be more vulnerable to becoming severely ill.

People may experience:
cough
fever
tiredness
difficulty breathing (severe cases)

How does COVID-19 Spread:

People can catch COVID-19 from others who have the virus.

The disease can spread from person to person through small droplets from the nose or mouth which are spread when a person with COVID-19 coughs or exhales. These droplets land on objects and surfaces around the person.

Other people then catch COVID-19 by touching these objects or surfaces, then touching their eyes, nose or mouth. People can also catch COVID-19 if they breathe in droplets from a person with COVID-19 who coughs out or exhales droplets.

This is why it is important to stay more than 1 meter (3 feet) away from a person who is sick.

WHO is assessing ongoing research on the ways COVID-19 is spread and will continue to share updated findings.

How we can prevent COVID-19:

As per WHO guideline, do the five steps to stop/avoid corona virus

HANDS Wash them often

ELBOW Cough into it

FACE Don’t touch it

SPACE Keep safe distance

HOME Stay if you can

Note: There’s currently no vaccine to prevent corona virus disease (COVID-19).

You can protect yourself and help prevent spreading the virus to others if you:
Do

Wash your hands regularly for 20 seconds, with soap and water or alcohol-based hand rub

Cover your nose and mouth with a disposable tissue or flexed elbow when you cough or sneeze

Avoid close contact (1 meter or 3 feet) with people who are unwell

Stay home and self-isolate from others in the household if you feel unwell

Don’t

Touch your eyes, nose, or mouth if your hands are not clean

Treatment/Care to prevent Corona virus (COVID-19):

There is no specific medicine to prevent or treat corona virus disease (COVID-19). People may need supportive care to help them breathe.

Self-care
If you have mild symptoms, stay at home until you’ve recovered. You can relieve your symptoms if you:

rest and sleep

keep warm

drink plenty of liquids

use a room humidifier or take a hot shower to help ease a sore throat and cough

Medical treatments
If you develop a fever, cough, and have difficulty breathing, promptly seek medical care. Call in advance and tell your health provider of any recent travel or recent contact with travelers.

Types of Multiprocessor Operating System

In Operating system (OS) Multiprocessor operating system refers to the use of number of or two or more Central Processing Units (CPU) within a single computer system. There are many types of Multiprocessor Operating System in a system.

Multiprocessor Operating System Definition:

Multiprocessor operating system is defined as “It is a system in which multiple processors works parallel and share the computer clock, memory, bus, peripheral devices etc. “

The main objective of multiprocessor operating system is to boost the system execution speed, fault tolerance and application matching.

Types of multiprocessor operating system:

Depending on the location of CPU’s and other different aspects there are many types of multiprocessor operating systems. They are as:

1] Symmetric multiprocessor

2] Asymmetric multiprocessor

3] Shared memory multiprocessor

4] Distributed memory multiprocessor

5] Uniform memory access multiprocessor

6] Non uniform memory access multiprocessor

1] Symmetric multiprocessor:

One operating system can use all the CPUs at once (thus allowing several tasks to be performed simultaneously).

Each processor contains a similar copy of the operating system and they all communicate with each other.

All the available processors are in a peer to peer relationship i.e. no master – slave relationship exists between them

2] Asymmetric multiprocessor:

Each processor is given a predefined task. There is a master processor that gives instruction to all the other processors.

It contains a master slave relationship.

Asymmetric multiprocessing is more commonly used in embedded systems which has more than one operating system, and each uses its own CPUs

3] Shared memory multiprocessor:

In shared memory multiprocessor, all the CPUs shares the common memory

4] Distributed memory multiprocessor:

In distributed memory multiprocessor, every CPU has its own private memory.

5] Uniform memory access multiprocessor:

In uniform memory access multiprocessor, access to all memory occurs at the same speed for all processors.

6] Non uniform memory access multiprocessor:

In non uniform memory access multiprocessor, access to some parts of memory is faster for some processors than other parts of memory

Points to remember or attention:

When two or more CPUs wanted to access same process simultaneously to run or claiming the same free memory page.

The simplest way around these problems is to associate a mutex (i.e., lock) with the operating system, making the whole system one big critical region.

When a CPU wants to run operating system code, it must first acquire the mutex. If the mutex is locked, it just waits.

In this way, any CPU can run the operating system, but only one at a time

Multiprocessor Operating System

Multiprocessor operating system refers to the use of number of or two or more Central Processing Units (CPU) within a single computer system.

Multiprocessor Operating System Definition:

Multiprocessor operating system is defined as “It is a system in which multiple processors works parallel and share the computer clock, memory, bus, peripheral devices etc. “

It is server operating systems with special features for the communication and the connectivity.

These systems are referred as tightly coupled systems.

Why Multiprocessor OS used:

Multiprocessor operating system used when very high speed is required to process a large volume of data.

Where Multiprocessor OS used:

Satellite control

Weather forecasting etc.

Multiprocessor operating system contains or work done o the basis of:
Symmetric multiprocessor: Each processor contains a

similar copy of the operating system and they all communicate with each other.

Asymmetric multiprocessor: Each processor is given a predefined task. There is a master processor that gives instruction to all the other processors.

Advantages of Multiprocessor OS:

To get more work done in a shorter period of time

More reliable (If one processor fails, the system will not halt.)

Enhanced Throughput (Number of processes getting executed per unit of time increase)

More Economic Systems (cheaper than single processor systems in the long run)

Disadvantages of Multiprocessor OS:

Complicated OS

Required Large Main Memory (Larger pool of memory is required as compared to single processor systems)

Thrashing in OS

Thrashing in OS is an issue when virtual memory is in use

Thrashing Meaning:

Thrashing is a condition in which excessive paging operations are taking place.It is the situation where process spends more time in processing page faults than executing instructions of processes.

Thrashing Definition and Concept:

Thrashing in OS is defined as, “it is condition and situation where system is major portion of time in serving the page fault or swapping the pages.

Why Trashing Occurs:

After increasing the degree of multi-programming then it may requires more frames. When this happens, a pattern typically develops in which a request is made of the operating system by a process or program to find resources by taking them from some other process, which in turn makes new requests that can’t be satisfied.

These processes need those pages, however and so they also fault and take frames from other processes.

All these faulting processes then queues up for the paging device to swap pages in and out. As processes wait for paging device till CPU utilization is decreases.

As a result CPU utilization decreases in chained reaction of higher page faults followed by an increase in the degree of multi-programming called as thrashing.

Thrashing is also known as a disk scheduling.

Effect of thrashing on system:

Whenever thrashing starts then
Can cause slowdown of the system performance in terms of data transfer between the hard drive (secondary memory) and physical memory (Main memory).

Application may stops responding.

Techniques to handle thrashing in OS:

I] Working Set Model

II] Page Fault Frequency:

I] Working Set Model:It is based on locality. In this, the page used recently or actively can be used again and also the pages which are nearby this page will also be used.

II] Page Fault Frequency:Allocate and suspend the process as per the requirement and availability of frames.
